This is going to be a lot of everything from now on (4/12) since life has changed so drastically in the last few years.

A couple projects with my recent stash enhancement

I love these spiral scrubbie's, but have always been too lazy to figure out how to make it bigger... I made one with Double Worsted Weight Peaches & Creme in Shrimp. I went ahead and whipped up one in my Peaches & Creme worsted in Persimmon so you can see the size difference. Pattern here... http://dishclothcorner.blogspot.com/2008/05/spiral-scrubbie.html I also did a Pineapple dishcloth which we will probably use in the bath because it is so bug and plush, in the double worsted in Daisy Ombre and one in the regular worsted in Gumdrops.
